Getting Started
Using the FM and AM Antennas
EN
Before you use your audio system, you’ll want to
make sure both the FM and AM antennas are

wall behind the unit if possible. The higher the
better.) You’ll also need to connect the AM
antenna loop to the back of the unit if you listen
to AM stations. Rotate the AM loop antenna for
better reception.

Each speaker has a black (negative) and a red
(positive) jack. When connecting the speakers,
match the red wires to the red jacks and the
black wires to the black jacks.
